Upon us all, a little rain must fall.

Rain Song is top 5 Zep for me.

[Birds in Hell]

Bron-Yr-Aur is simple and sweet, The Rain Song is mind-numbingly boring.

[Kevin Davis]

I actually like having my mind numbed from time to time. This is an easy vote for "Rain Song."

[Norah]

KD gets it

[tragabigzanda]

Also it's a beautiful song.

[Kevin Davis]

The harmony in it is great -- a lot of cool chord changes that resolve in an eerie yet somehow very soothing and familiar way. It definitely took me a little while to "get" "The Rain Song" but it's probably my favorite on "Houses of the Holy" now.

[tragabigzanda]

I love the gentle explosion at the end.

[Self]

Rain Song is such a good arrangement; feels almost classical. KD's makes a good point about that resolve. It releases the tension with a slither that I can't wait to hear every time I know it's coming.

JOJ did some stellar work on Rain Song. I appreciate him more and more as I grow older.
